Min‘ng‘s New Peak The mining industry attained in 1938 a new bigh peak of production snd of employment afforded. the available statistics indicating a The agricultural industry is of parâ€" amount importance to oneâ€"third of the total population of Canada, which obta.nus its livelihood directly from the farm. For this great basic element in the nation, 1938 was genâ€" erally a more favorable year than 1937. The yields of our field crops were on the average about 38 per cent. in excess of those of 1937, alâ€" though aggregate values were lowâ€" er. The wheat crop was estimated at 348.100,400 bushels, or over 90 per cent. more than that of 1937, though its value was only $12,000,â€" 000 greater. \ Business in 1938 I Canadian business in 1938, alâ€" though more prosperous than in any cf the yeas from 1931 to 1936, could not fail to be affected by the deteriâ€" oration in tme international situation and by the wars and the rumors of ’wlder wars which have shaken the confidence of the public in the preâ€" ‘servation of peace among the great powers. Yet the business of Canada in 1938 showed only slight falling off fom that of 1937, while the larger crops bharvcsted this fall and the steadily increasing activity in the mining industry operated to proâ€" duce a gencal improvement, which should continue into 1939. From the Canadian end, the agreeâ€" ment with the United States is exâ€" pected to benefit lumber and shingles, horses, cattle and dairy proâ€" ducts, hog products, potatoes, fish, certain grains, hay, poultry products, pulp and paper fetals, nonâ€"metalic minerals and ferroalloys, and many lines of manufactured goods. Conâ€" cessions bave been received from the United States on 202 items and subâ€" items of the United States taiff, and on goods representing about fiveâ€" sixthe of Canadian sales to the Unitâ€" ed States in 1937. {the remainder is carried on with countries with which we have always ’beon' in friendly commercial relaâ€" tions. The recentlyâ€"signed tradeo agreements. therefore, place nearly 90 per cent. of all Canadian external trade upon a basis that is satisfacâ€" tory, both to ourselves and to the other partios to the agreements, and constitute a‘certain insurance of the continuance of our trade at a high level in the coming years. As it is, Canada wi‘l in 1938 maintain her re centlyâ€"established position as the fourth largest exporter in the world. Trade Agreements The outs:anding event of 1938 in respect of trude policy was the simulâ€" tameous signature of trade agreeâ€" ments between Canada and the Unitâ€" ed States and between the United Kingdom and the United States .t‘ Washington on November 17. So far as Canada and the United States are concerned, the neow agreeâ€" ment is a continuance and extebsion ‘ot the former threeyear agreement of 1935, uncer which the exports of merchandise of Canadian produce to the United States increased from $305.000.003 to $423.000,000 between the fiscal years ended 1935 and 1938, while our imports of merchandise from the United States rose from §304.000,000 to $487,000,000 in the same period. ‘The new agreement will thereaiter be terminable by either country on six months‘ notice,.

WATERLOO, ONT. CATTLE + Education Costs Flayed "Second to relief, but in every re spect as vi:a‘!. is the problem of eduâ€" cation and burden of costs it loads "In my opinion there are only two avenues of escape: either the muniâ€" cipality mus* be given a différent and greater source of revenue or be reâ€" lieved of tie burden and respons!â€" bility of such social service as Unâ€" employment Relief. Since we have been and are now coâ€"partnérs with the Dominion and Provincial ‘Govâ€" ernments in the matter of Unemployâ€" ment Relie! and, up to the present. as one of the partners has had no voice in the management whatsoâ€" ever, I ask you: Would it be a wise move on our part to set up maximas of our own for this year beyond which we would not and dare not go? I leave thi«s thought with you, genâ€" tlemen, for your serlous consideraâ€" tion. ‘ _ "It must be remembered that the ’restricted sources of municipal reâ€" venues, in the face of abnormal ‘charges for relief expenditures, has forced taxation upon Real Estate in such a crushing burden which, at the presen: time, give promise of destroying Real Estate values and thereby undermining the whole basis of municip«l administration and finâ€" ance; and. in consequence, the larger municipality finds itself today required to meet the socialkand ecoâ€" nomic conditions of a new era with financial m:chinery that is antiquatâ€" ed and outâ€"worn. "I believe it would be wisdom for us to concertrate our efforts on the one big problems, that of unemployâ€" ment relie‘, the cost of which has seriously eribarrassed the financial position oi many < municipalities. Happily, Ktchener does not find itâ€" self in that position. By careful manâ€" agement in the past we were able to keep out ani only by careful manâ€" agement in the future will we be able to stay out of that embarrassment. ' .(Continued from Page 1) imposed br the Provincial Governâ€" ment, cannot be evaded. We would be unworthy did we not publicly acâ€" Inowledge the degree of our own reâ€" sponsibilities .and recognize that the circumstances of the present situaâ€" tion require extraordinary efforts on our part. Canada, therefore, may on many grounds antiipate a better business year in 1039, particularly in respect of her primary products. Such proâ€" ducts are sure to benefit from freer 'admisslon to the great market of the 130,000,000 people to the south, where business conditions since May last have oeen rapidly improving. Again, Canadian business is bound to ‘benefit in coming year as a result of the desire of Great Britain to maâ€" nufacture munitions in areas far reâ€" moved froimn possible attack. Canâ€" adians, while remembering that there are clouds vpon the world horizons, may face 1939 with considerable conâ€" fidence.
